By Daniel Lewis, Senior Reporter | 27 November 2014

Leigh Griffiths returns to Celtic's starting lineup for tonight's match against Red Bull Salzburg in one of four changes for the hosts at Celtic Park.

Ronny Deila has made four changes to his Celtic side for this evening's Europa League Group D clash against Red Bull Salzburg.

The Hoops bring Leigh Griffiths into their starting lineup, knowing that progression into the last 32 of the competition will be secured with victory over the current leaders at Celtic Park.

Efe Ambrose, Scott Brown and Callum McGregor are also recalled for the hosts, while Jason Denayer, Kris Commons, James Forrest and the ineligible John Gudetti miss out.

Like their opponents, Salzburg have yet to lose a game in the competition this season, with Alan and Jonathan Soriano tasked with leading the line for this one.

Celtic XI: Gordon; Matthews, Ambrose, van Dijk, Izaguirre; Brown, Mulgrew; McGregor, Johansen, Stokes; Griffiths.
Subs: Zaluska, Bitton, Scepovic, Commons, Tonev, Kayal, Forrest.

Red Bull Salzburg XI: Schmitz, Ankersen, Ramalho, Hinteregger, Kampl, Bruno, Ilsanker, Leitgeb, Alan, Soriano
